Is this really a good idea for SOE? I mean, I'll be taking full advantage of this, but they're just leeching players from PS2.

I doubt it'll be so many that it would make a noticeable dent in PS2's playerbase.

Smart vets didn't play PS1 for ten years while technology caught up to it.

So I guess you aren't that smart.

I really don't think so. I've spent almost 40 dollars on PS1 within the past few months so I'm glad to see I got my money's worth with the free 6 months. And it's only past PS1 subscribers. So i'm sure they will get a ton of new PS1 subs for all those wanting to try it out with the new populations. And I know I will be spending some money on SC for PS2 when lattice rolls out so support SOE.

I get 480 fps in sanc. ;P

Over 200 in combat.


You do have to run it in admin mode though! Launch launchpad as admin.



Also, expectancy is that server is down to fix a bug where Core Combat hasn't been flagged for players. Probably to do with the server switch to the west coast back then.

Agreed. I also don't see why vets wouldn't want to play both. I'm also sure that there are plenty of new'ish PS2 players who will now have a moment of reprieve from the constant pwnage bestowed upon them by the aformentioned vets.

It won't even let me install it yet as it says my sub is not active, would have been good if I could at least install it for now. I am so inpatient lol

No offense, but I doubt I will bother. I can't go back to terrible gun play again and waiting longer and longer after I die etc.

No offense taken. Only time offense is taken is when people continually post how much they hate PS1 over and over again. We know you hate it already, move along.....
